Organ system function (including hematopoietic and hepatic) should be assessed periodically during prolonged mebendazole therapy.
McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service. AHFS Drug Information. American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Bethesda, MD. 2006., p. 53
Other adverse effects reported rarely in patients receiving mebendazole include alopecia, rash, pruritus, urticaria, angioedema, flushing, hiccups, cough, weakness,drowsiness, chills, hypotension, seizures, transient abnormalities in liver function tests (e.g., increased serum concentrations of aminotransferases, alkaline phosphatase, and/or bilirubin), hepatitis, increased BUN, decreased hemoglobin concentration and/or hematocrit, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, eosinophilia, hematuria, and cylindruria.Migration of roundworms through the mouth and nose also has been reported.
McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service. AHFS Drug Information. American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Bethesda, MD. 2006., p. 53
Myelosuppression manifested as neutropenia (including agranulocytosis) and/or thrombocytopenia also has been reported in patients receiving high-dose (e.g., 30-50 mg/kg daily) mebendazole therapy for extraintestinal infections; while the myelosuppression usually was reversible following discontinuance of the drug, death has occurred rarely.
McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service. AHFS Drug Information. American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Bethesda, MD. 2006., p. 53
At usual recommended dosages (i.e., 100-200 mg daily), mebendazole appears to cause minimal adverse effects. Adverse effects appear to occur more frequently when higher dosages (e.g., those used in the treatment of extraintestinal infections such as hydatid disease) are used, and may be related to effects resulting from drug-induced killing of the parasites in some cases. Transient diarrhea and abdominal pain have occurred occasionally during mebendazole treatment, but usually have been associated with massive infections and expulsion of the helminths. Nausea, vomiting, headache, tinnitus, numbness, and dizziness also have been reported occasionally during mebendazole therapy. Fever has occurred in some patients, particularly in those receiving high-dose therapy for extraintestinal infections.

Absorption
Poorly absorbed (approximately 5 to 10%) from gastrointestinal tract. Fatty food increases absorption.
Route of Elimination
In man, approximately 2% of administered mebendazole is excreted in urine and the remainder in the feces as unchanged drug or a primary metabolite.
Elimination: Fecal: Approximately 95% excreted unchanged or as the primary metabolite (2-amino derivative) in feces. Renal: Approximately 2 to 5% excreted unchanged or as the primary metabolite in urine.

Although the exact metabolic fate of mebendazole has not been fully determined, the drug is metabolized via decarboxylation to 2-amino-5(6)-benzimidazolyl phenylketone; this metabolite does not have anthelmintic activity.
McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service. AHFS Drug Information. American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Bethesda, MD. 2006., p. 53
Mebendazole ... is extensively metabolized. Two major metabolites, methyl-5-(alpha-5-hydroxybenzyl)-2-benzimidazole carbamate and 2-amino-5-benzoylbenzimidazole, have lower rates of clearance than does mebendazole itself. Mebendazole, rather than its metabolites, appears to be the active drug form. Conjugates of mebendazole and its metabolites have been found in bile, but little unchanged mebendazole appears in the urine.

Mebendazole causes degenerative alterations in the tegument and intestinal cells of the worm by binding to the colchicine-sensitive site of tubulin, thus inhibiting its polymerization or assembly into microtubules. The loss of the cytoplasmic microtubules leads to impaired uptake of glucose by the larval and adult stages of the susceptible parasites, and depletes their glycogen stores. Degenerative changes in the endoplasmic reticulum, the mitochondria of the germinal layer, and the subsequent release of lysosomes result in decreased production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the energy required for the survival of the helminth. Due to diminished energy production, the parasite is immobilized and eventually dies.
Although the exact mechanism of anthelmintic activity of mebendazole has not been fully elucidated, the drug appears to cause selective and irreversible inhibition of the uptake of glucose and other low molecular weight nutrients in susceptible helminths; inhibition of glucose uptake appears to result in endogenous depletion of glycogen stores in the helminth. Mebendazole does not inhibit glucose uptake in mammals. Mebendazole appears to cause degenerative changes in the intestine of nematodes and in the absorptive cells of cestodes. The principal anthelmintic effect of the drug appears to be degeneration of cytoplasmic microtubules within these intestinal and absorptive cells. Microtubular deterioration results in inhibition of organelle movement and interferes with the absorptive and secretory function. As a result of excessive accumulation of intracellular transport secretory granules, hydrolytic and proteolytic enzymes are released and cause cellular autolysis. This irreversible damage leads to death of the parasite.
McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service. AHFS Drug Information. American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Bethesda, MD. 2006., p. 53
Vermicidal; may also be ovicidal for ova or most helminths; mebendazole causes degeneration of parasite's cytoplasmic microtubules and thereby selectively and irreversibly blocks glucose uptake in susceptible adult intestine-dwelling helminths and their tissue-dwelling larvae; inhibition of glucose uptake apparently results in depletion of the parasite's glycogen stores; this, in turn, results in reduced formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) required for survival and reproduction of the helminth; corresponding energy levels are gradually reduced until death of the parasite ensues; mebendazole does not appear to affect serum glucose concentrations in humans, however.
Thomson/Micromedex. Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. Volume 1, Greenwood Village, CO. 2006., p. 1993
Benzimidazoles produce many biochemical changes in susceptible nematodes, eg, inhibition of mitochondrial fumarate reductase, reduced glucose transport, and uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation ... /but/ the primary action ... /should be/ to inhibit microtubule polymerization by binding to beta-tubulin. The selective toxicity of these agents derives from the fact that specific, high-affinity binding to parasite beta-tubulin occurs at much lower concn than does binding to the mammalian protein ... Benzimidazole-resistant Haemonchus contortus display reduced high-affinity drug binding to beta-tubulin and alterations in beta-tubulin isotype gene expression that correlate with drug resistance ... Two identified mechanisms of drug resistance in nematodes involve both a progressive loss of "susceptible" beta-tubulin gene isotypes together with emergence of a "resistant" isotype with a conserved point mutation that encodes a tyrosine instead of phenylalanine at position 200 of beta-tubulin. While this mutation may not be required for benzimidazole resistance in all parasites, eg, Giardia lamblia, benzimidazole resistance in parasitic nematodes is unlikely to be overcome by novel benzimidazole analogs, because tyrosine also is present at position 200 of human beta-tubulin. /Benzimidazoles/
